About this episode
They’ve been lying to you about inflation and I can prove it.We’ve been told inflation is normal, even good. That 2% inflation is required for a healthy economy, and that wages rise with the cost of living so no one gets hurt. But that’s perhaps the biggest lie in all of modern economics.In this video I break down why that story falls apart and how the system turns productivity into profit for the few instead of freedom for everyone else.Wages don't keep up, but even if they did, inflation is still the greatest theft of all time and Bitcoin exposes exactly how they pull it off.Value 4 Value: If you enjoyed this content feel free to zap me some sats via the lightning network: thesatstacker@coinos.io or https://coinos.io/thesatstackerNYKNYC.
